These C functions could use something like the UDBC drivers from OpenLink or possibly a C interface library from Progress (I have no idea if they have it). The UDBC drivers are a call level interface library along the lines of ANSI/CLI (something like ODBC) runing on Unix. And what is "vice versa"? Update an Informix database from an application written in Progress (the language)? I thought there where connectivity solutions for that from Progress?
